Fiebing Antique Pricing Wowwwww

[Bluesman]

Just got back into this hobby and remebered the antique I use to use from Fiebing. Bought some antique from Tandy, Eco Flo, and the results were.....NOT. So I kept asking myself, is this the way it used to be, back 30 years ago. Well with the help of this forum and some searching I found that Fiebing still makes the original paste. From thier site I asked were can I buy it. They told me my local Tandy store. Nope they don;t carry it. So off to the Fiebing site I go, Hi Ho, Hi Ho it's off to buy we go. I order four 4oz bottles and $10.50 a pop and I'm happy as a pig in mud. The next day I get the shipping confirmation. Only to notice it was shipped from Milwaukee, WI. I live in 70 miles north and was 3 miles from this place on shipping day. Never knew they existed. Oh, well good info and I'll pack it away. So I visit thier site, I can buy the antique direct from them for $5.15 a bottle. So let's do some quick math. 4 bottles from Fiebing at $42 plus $10 shipping = $52. I order from the place in Milwaukee and pick it up at thier wharehouse, same four bottles $20.60. Holy Crap that is some mark up these ^%(&%&(*&*&*& have :wtf: So just letting all of you good folks know that if you order from Fiebing direct you may just overpay........a little bit
